Lewinsky graduates from London School of Economics
Yahoo News ^ | December 20, 2006 | Reuters

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Former White House intern Monica Lewinsky, whose sexual relationship with U.S. President Bill Clinton led to his impeachment, has graduated from the London School of Economics, her publicist said on Wednesday.

Lewinsky, who was 21 when she became involved with Clinton, is interviewing for jobs in Britain, publicist Barbara Hutson said.

When Lewinsky, 32, received her Masters of Science degree in Social Psychology last Thursday "the audience of students and parents erupted in spontaneous applause. ... It was a very emotional moment for her," Hutson said in a statement.

Hutson said Lewinsky spent the past year studying and "staying away from the London social scene."

She completed a thesis entitled "In Search of the Impartial Juror: An exploration of the third person effect and pre-trial publicity."

Did this woman have the gpa and test scores to merit admission to one of the most competitive and pretigious academic institutions in the world? This is UNBELIEVABLE!

But after that, apparently it is pretty useful.

Social Psychology

Psychology = study of the id by the odd.

Socialogy = study of the masses by the horse's asses.

IOW, the rough equivalent of Al Gore's degree in political science from an Ivy League university . . . after flunking out of law school and flunking out of divinity school. By the way, how does anyone manage to flunk out of divinity school?

During the test Gore was caught looking into someone else's soul.

Reuters gets it wrong again. President Clinton was impeached because he lied under oath about Paula Jones. He would have skated onthat charge except for all the buzz generated when Drudge & Linda Tripp revealed the existence of Monica and others.

Wow...economics...so she's going professional, into business and all that. Probably name her business "Lewinsky's". It'll just suck in the cash.

I heard she graduated magna cum lewdly.

She's earned more than a few cheapshots.

Who in the world would have been her references? I find it curious that some brilliant kids from all over the world are willing to give their eye-teeth to get in and she's the one they accept. I would absolutely LOVE to see her transcript from college and know her gpa. She didn't sound like she was doing much at college except breaking up one prof's marriage.

Test scores? Wonder if hers were even considered.

This is definitely a case of an unworthy "celebrity" admission and has lowered my opinion of the LSE FOREVER!
